SAFEST AND SUREST.

In letter written from Hartford Con
necticuD capitalist, the following appears
in regard to Kansas: The story of the
wonderful growth Of Kansas has read al
most like IA fable to The people Of the New
England states Formerly it was the habit
Of the more conservative classes in this
rock-ribbed and wealthy region to read
these stories and smile incredulously over
them. For few years, splendid resources
aud rapid growth has received a different
kind of attention, and the very class of peo-
pie alluded to above, have come to regard
1t in the light Of what it appears and public
men have always claimed for it, and have
10y personal inspection found it to be the
s1fest and surcSt Of the western states for
m0nied investments"

One great secret Of Wichita and Sedgwick
countys prosperity has been the low taxes
and freedom from Indebtedness. There are
hundreds of townships in this state and
dozens of villages which have greater
bonded Indebtedness than Sedgwick county.
Sedgwick countys outstanding bonds all
told amount to just S4S, 900, all told, and
the total bonded Indebtedness Of Wichita
city is less than $50 Geo. Under the law
Wichita city could vote about 81 ,000, 000.of
bonds more, and the county about as much
more. Many counties and towns have
reached the limit fixed by the statutes. Ne
county in Kansas is as free from bonded

Governor Martin has obtained a state
ment of the railroad bonded Indebtedness
in the state OF course the total is an
enormous sum.-Lincoln Republican,
So is the total value of any town, city OF
county in the state an enormous sum as is
the value Of any railroad in the state.
In 1869, the writer Of this. in the state
senate, made q statement Of the approx
mate Indebtedness Of the state Of Kansas
considered by counties, townships, cities
and school districts. The total was so
enormous that Hon John Spcer telegraph
ed the statement to the Lawrence Daily
Tribune, and several Kansas statesmen @?
gave it as their opinion that poor Kansas
had gone to the dogs The four big
counties on the Lower Arkansas, Cowley,
Butler, Sedgwick and Sumner, could carry
that debt now and not feel it. The world
